Abstract

Abstract The interaction of intense electromagnetic radiation with molecular matter is considered in terms of group theoretical statistical mechanics (gtsm). Field induced dipole moments are expanded in a double Taylor series in powers of the electric and magnetic field components multiplied by complex molecular property tensors (susceptibilities). The third principle of gtsm leads to several new non-linear optical effects, together with a symmetry classification of known effects. One new effect is detailed in terms of the Maxwell equation, and an estimate made of its order of magnitude.
